Roll up cost in BOM overview (printable version) does not include total.

When I look at the BOM overview for my products I find to my surprise that I cannot get the Total cost printed in the printable version.
In the summary on the webpage it is all there e.g.


But not in the printout:

That cannot be right!?
If it is like that by design I would like to request to have the total included.

I would agree, the total needs to be on the printable version.

FYI @jake.
It is almoist achivable by modifying the document pdf_component_table.tt under the Custom Documents menu under config settings under admin menu…
Just add this to the end.

        [% END %]
    [% END %]
	
	<tr> 
	<td colspan=11> <b>Unit cost:</td> <td colspan=2 align=right><b>[% total_ext_cost.format_currency(total_precision) %] </b></td>
	</tr>
    [% IF !level %]
        </table>
    [% END %]

However that only works in the old version and also I cannot seem to find the build_qty parameter in the object structure. So it will not scale when you increase the build quantity.

Hi Cetec Support!
I’d like a reply to this!

Hi @sisyfos,

If you’d like for our engineering team to take a look at your custom doc there and determine what might be causing the content to extend beyond the page boundaries, we can check with them and get an estimate for you.

If you want to continue working on it on your own, a couple of things to check would be to make sure you don’t have any elements with defined widths forcing things to overflow, and also that you don’t have any print settings in your browser that might be affecting the scale of the document as it tries to print.

Best of luck! Let us know if you need to have our engineers take a look.

Hi,
You are miss understanding the problem.
It is not an issue of me running out of space on page boundries.
It is Cetec not scaling the roll up cost on the BOM overview and showing the total.
So if you look at the picture below where I print the bom overview for building 1 PCHFUMI ICEMINT 0.7G 11MGP.

And the get a print of the bom overview.

it calculates the roll up cost fine.
but if i build 100 it does not calculate the total roll up cost and print it.
Not in the overview nor in the printable version

That can’t be right.
If a collegue of mine asks what’s the cost of producing 100 units of product x I would like to easily show them what the roll up cost is.
They do not want to get the calculator each time to figure out what the roll up cost is for the specific qantity they asked for because I can only show them how much it costs to produce 1.

I am having the same issue as @sisyfos. The printable version of the BOM Overview does not show the total cost.

In fact, some of the BOM Overview’s will not show the total at the bottom of the screen or the printable version. See the screenshot below.

Below are a few more examples of the BOM Overview not totaling correctly or at all in some cases. The Labor often does not appear in the total and sometimes the Roll Up cost does not appear. It’s a real mess. I am having to calcuate all cost totals manually and have multiple pages open just to find the cost of a single product.


Search BOM Cost in the forum and you’ll see this is a long-going “feature”.

I read the thread and I must say I am not impressed with this answer.

I cannot see how a total could possibly add to the confusion.
